ConspectusPhotovoltaics (PVs) are currently the most economical and location-independent source of electricity generation, and their demand is growing rapidly as a sustainable renewable energy source.

Porous materials, characterized by their controllable pore size, high specific surface area, and controlled space functionality, have become cross-scale structures with microenvironment effects and ...

Although transition metals constitute less than 0.1% of the total mass within a human body, they have a substantial impact on fundamental biological processes across all kingdoms of life. Indeed, ...

The development and optimization of promising anode material for next-generation alkali metal ion batteries are significant for clean energy evolution. 2D MXenes have drawn extensive attention in ...

While polycarbosilanes have been widely applied as functional materials, thanks to their excellent performance in various fields, the catalytic synthesis is quite limited to the hydrosilylation ...

The surface activity of ten atmospherically relevant α-pinene-derived dimers having varying terminal functional groups and backbone stereochemistry is reported. We find ∼10% differences in surface ...

Interest in optical materials for biomedical imaging and sensing applications has grown significantly in recent decades. Among a variety of material choices, single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) ...

A liquid drop resting on a soft solid deforms the surface at the three-phase contact line. The surface deformation, also called “wetting ridge”, varies in size from nanoscales to microscales, ...

The Butler–Volmer (BV) equation links the current flux crossing an electrochemical interface to the electric potential drop across it with the assumption of Arrhenius kinetics and the Boltzmann factor ...

An electrochemically controlled synthesis of multiblock copolymers by alternating the redox states of (salfan)Zr(OtBu)2 (salfan = 1,1′-di(2-tert-butyl-6-N-methylmethylenephenoxy)ferrocene) is reported ...

Humans use textiles to maintain thermal homeostasis amidst environmental extremes but known textiles have limited thermal windows. There is evidence that polar-dwelling animals have evolved a ...
